Basically, here is how things are organized:
gASQL uses gnome-db as a unique mean of accessing a database (at no time has gASQL knowledge of what the actual DBMS is).
Gnome-db is composed of a framework, and of several 'providers' which each enable the access to one DBMS. These providers are in different state of usability. To have gASQL working correctly, you need a version of gnome-db which is correctly installed and configured on your system.
Also, if the Bonobo support is enabled in gASQL, you will be able to do some tasks specific to the DBMS you are working with (managing users and their rights, managing databases, etc), provided that gnome-db supports it for the DBMS you are working with.
